New to NICU

0
I have been a nurse for just over a year now. I started as a postpartum nurse in March 2010 and for the last few months have been in the newborn nursery. I will be starting in the NICU internship later this month. I was wondering if any of you had some words of wisdom for things I should do to prepare myself. I will get 7 weeks of classes and training during the day shift and then move back to nights with a precptor for up 13 more weeks. I know that the NICU is a different animal and would appreciate any insight you might want to share. Thanks
